This ^^^^^. I find most talk so much they are more of a distraction than a help.

I'm looking forward to it! Funny thing is that I really didn't play much this year either, and no 18-hole rounds. Among other things, I had surgery to repair a hernia, which I know about in June but put off until early September. Mostly played just my Friday night league, although I am playing tomorrow at NKGC. It's winter rates so a flat $39. I'm planning to walk, which I always do for 9, but will likely cut the round short at the 12th hole. -
Whoo Hooo, I know somebody famous! Interesting product which looks well designed and rugged.

Good video! The feedback of using a line in a bunker to improve low point control makes a lot of sense to me. Also, Dechambeau seems like he is able to communicate what he's looking for Shiels to do really well.

It was Calvin Hill (NFL great and Yale graduate) who said it to his son Grant Hill (NBA great). Grant was a client of the Bank that I worked for and over the course of several years donated signed basketballs for auction by the Warwick (RI) Boys and Girls Clubs of which I was the Treasurer. In answer to the original question, Yes.

I have to admit to never having been a big fan of Rahm's and I wasn't really sure why.....until now.

@iacas Thanks for your thorough explanation of this shot (which I have also hit by accident, LOL)! Your discussion ties several things together for me, including how to execute the low spinner. I joined Mayo's Patreon site and found his comments and videos fascinating. Although I cancelled at the end of November, it was not because of the quality of his videos but rather that at my level I need to develop a reliable basic pitch first.

Holes/3-putt for the last 15 (Shot Scope) is 10.1 and for the last 5 is 13.5. I've been working on putting diligently for the past couple of months and it is really starting to show.

I just checked 5 rounds (one was two 9s combined) and my predicted (using this formula) versus actual was within a stroke except for one round for which the formula predicted an 83 versus the 89 that I actually shot. Results for the outlier round were likely skewed by a lost ball penalty on a Par-3 and a blowup hole, both of which resulted in triples, several situations where I just missed the green resulting in first "putts" which did not count as putts and a "chip in" so my putt count was several strokes less than usual. Otherwise, this formula seems to be very predictive.

Shot Scope offered existing users a really good deal on the X5 earlier this year when they were first released. Although some reported problems, mine has worked well from the get-go and the firmware updates have been timely and fixed problems which users had experienced. Based on how they have handled the problems several users did report, I would grade Shot Scope's customer support as top notch. I have never used Arccos, but having to pay a subscription fee on an ongoing basis was a negative for me. I have always worn a watch when I play anyway, so it feels pretty natural.

I just entered my round from August 16. I shot an 89 with one lost ball penalty (resulted in a triple bogie) and 27 putts. Although I only hit two greens (predicting a 91), I just missed three others and holed a chip (using a putter) from just off the green all of which reduced my putt count below what it would have typically been. It was raining for most of the round.
